    PRWeb – Fri, Jan 13, 2012

    San Francisco, Calif. (PRWEB) January 13, 2012

    The Novogradac Journal of Tax Credits today honored the winners of its third annual Developments of Distinction at a breakfast banquet held in Miami, Fla. The award presentations were made before a large audience of affordable housing professionals attending Novogradac & Company LLP’s 18th annual Tax Credit Developers Conference.

    “Each year we gather to honor the best and the brightest in the tax credit industry, and each year I’m amazed at the caliber of so many deserving projects; this year’s winners truly are members of an elite group,” said Michael J. Novogradac, managing partner of Novogradac & Company LLP. “It is heartening that there are so many deserving housing, historic and renewable energy tax credit developments being built to serve residents in need and, more broadly, serve communities in which they are located. I congratulate this year’s winners and invite all with a housing, historic and renewable energy development to enter next year.”

    The awards recognize outstanding achievement in the development of projects using the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC), historic tax credit (HTC), renewable energy tax credit (RETC), Section 1602 Exchange Program grant funds and/or tax credit projects using U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program financing.
